Can anyone explain what the -svv flag means/does when running pytest from command line? Such as:
pytest -svv
This is really driving me crazy, as I can't find it in pytest's official documentation, its code base or through a web search.
What does the `-svv` flag mean when running pytest via the command line interface?

This is the same as passing
pytest -s -vv
where
-s disables capturing of stdout/stderr (source)
-vv enables verbose output (source)
Specifically note that the increased verbosity specifier currently has no effect in base pytest above normal increased verbosity
Using higher verbosity levels (
-vvv,-vvvv, …) is supported, but has no effect in pytest itself at the moment, however some plugins might make use of higher verbosity
